ABOUT
ME
After earning my BFA in Illustration from California State University, East Bay in 2021, I launched TheTVOShop, a Sticker and 3D Printing business. As a Sticker Designer and 3D Printing Specialist, I craft unique movie, pop culture, and geek culture stickers, along with custom-made 3D-printed collectibles. My passion for design has enabled me to connect with thousands of customers worldwide, bringing their favorite fandoms to life through distinctive, high-quality creations. Alongside growing my business, I earned a Google UX Design certificate, which has deepened my skills in user experience and interface design. This achievement enhances my ability to create intuitive, user-friendly designs and supports my journey into the UX field, where I aim to blend innovative digital experiences with my creative expertise. My dream is to work for Collectible companies such as NECA, Hasbro, Super7 and bring some of my creativity into the world.
Education

Bachelors of Fine Arts in Illustration
California State University East Bay
I graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in Illustration from California State University East Bay, where I immersed myself in concept design, storyboarding, and narrative techniques. I explored various design types, from character and environment design to creating detailed storyboards that brought stories to life. My passion for storytelling extended into making books and even crafting my own artbook, where I was able to design a whole world of characters and environments. These experiences not only sharpened my artistic skills but also fueled my love for blending visuals with compelling stories, a passion that continues to inspire my current creative projects.

Transfer
Ohlone College
My creative journey began at Ohlone College, where I studied from 2016 to 2019 before transferring to CSU East Bay. Right after high school, I jumped into exploring digital and physical art, learning the entire Adobe Creative Suite, and gaining my first hands-on experience with 3D modeling and 3D printing. I even dabbled in video game design, which added a fun twist to my studies. This period was pivotal, as it equipped me with the skills and confidence to later create a business that crafts and sells unique stickers and 3D prints. Ohlone College was the perfect starting point for turning my passion for art into a creative career.
